#MyBlackHistory ✊🏾 Did you know? #WilliamChapman was the first person I ever officially stepped for. Backstory via @blm757 - #BLM757History Did you know? #BLM757 Was sparked by the outrage in watching the #PhilandoCastile video, and the lack of amplification we were receiving for local cases of injustice. 18 year old #WilliamChapman was shot and killed by former officer Stephen Rankin outside of a Portsmouth #WalMart. This was the first case we had ever been directly involved with. There were many national stories at the time, but THIS was not one of them. @attystepmorales took the steps we hope commonwealth attorneys and DA’s across the country will take …. Indicting & convicting unlawful officers swiftly. That indictment lead to a conviction. That was also not amplified as it should have been. It would have delivered a MESSAGE to those prior to #GeorgeFloyd & #TyreeNichols Change starts at HOME. We will continue to amplify cases of injustice, and find solutions to better this place we call America. If we can get kil*er cops locked up in Virginia, CASE LAW says we can get them locked up nationwide. An injustice ANYWHERE is a threat to justice EVERYWHERE. ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 #JusticeForWilliamChapman . . . . . . . . . #SayHisName #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackHistory #BlackLivesMatter757 #Explorepage #Explore #BaneJones757 (at Portsmouth, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoSTdNKO-Qj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

and y'all wonder why I'm enraged? It ain't a few fucking bad apples. The whole fucking system is fucked up. It does not make any sense for a person who is armed and "trained" to be put in such a state of fear by an unarmed individual. Stop fucking killing black men. Stop fucking killing the people. If this doesn't enrage you. Then you on the wrong side of history. Much love and appreciate to @thefakepan for creating this illustration. #truth #educateyourself #stayinformed #restinpower #williamchapman #blacklivesmatter #defundthepolice #defundthesystem #fuckdonaldtrump🖕 #fucktrumpsupporters #fuckthegovernment #dismantlewhiteprivilege #dismantlewhitesupremacy #dismantlepatriarchy #fightforblacklives #stopkillingus #stopkillingblackpeople #stopkillingblackmen #portsmouth #virginia https://www.instagram.com/p/CDF1At9ALIr/?igshid=y8hski2biy9a

On April 22, 2015 - 18 year old unarmed #WilliamChapman was shot in the face by officer #StephenRankin in front of #WalMart in #Portsmouth Virginia. This was the 2nd individual that this officer had slain unarmed via excessive force .. #WilliamChapman was handcuffed while deceased and the handcuffs remained on his deceased body onto the medical bed .. This case has made #international headlines , yet still has not "hit home" .. Not a whisper .. Not a stir .. We humbly come to the 757, and all of Virginia asking you to stand for this injustice in our own local area .. 1st degree murder is the charge. Stephen Rankin was found guilty , and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years. He has since been released. Former officer Stephen Rankin is now attempting to have a new trial to have all charges dropped, if this were to happen Stephen Rankin would be free to become an officer and kill yet again. The first individual that Stephen Rankin killed was shot 11 times! Call to action: Please join us in Richmond Virginia on Tuesday February 26th, 2019 in support of the Chapman family , and other victims of police brutality to take a stand against police brutality! Court trial will take place at 8am - Peace rally to take place 11 am @ the Richmond Bell Tower. Our goal: We're speaking out about passing a bill on police brutality, and excessive force of the police department! Senate bill 1421 and Senate bill 931 which are already in place in the state of California, should have a welcome space in Virginia senate bills as well! If you would like to become directly involved , press/media , please e.mail [email protected] #JusticeForWilliamChapman May we please assemble peacefully in solidarity to be a catalyst for the entire nation to see .. That slaying unarmed ANY color human being, behind a badge will no longer go unpunished in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA .. We also encourage all coming to respect the natural process of the courts and refrain from any obscene behavior or disruptions #Amen 🙏🙏🙏 #JusticeForWilliamChapman #BlackLivesMatter757 #PleaseShare #BreakingNews #CNN #BBC #TheGuardian #BreakingNews #RVA #BLM757 #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackLivesMatter #VUU #VSU (at Virginia State Capitol) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuVAoW6nUOD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1koc1alr116tj
